Acer Nitro XV272U Vbmiiprx 27 Zero-Frame WQHD 2560 x 1440 Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium | Agile-Splendor IPS | Overclock to 170Hz | Up to 0.5ms | 95% DCI-P3 | 1 x Display Port & 2 x HDMI 2.0

If your looking for a affordable 2k resolution monitor look no further! This is a well made monitor with great colors and decent brightness! Its smooth frames are amazing and makes gaming and just watching content awesome. The main downside i had with this monitor was its HDR is a bit over saturated, i may need to adjust the setting to get it to a more natural looking color but as it stands now the colors look over saturated and off putting. Pros: - 2k resolution - 144 hz - good colors - decent price - monitor stand is rotation, height, and even swivel. (swivel is rare on stands so this is nice) Cons: - hdr is over saturated - system menus are a bit confusing - like many monitors designs the usb ports are useless if you have a multi monitor set up.

I recently purchased two each of the following 27 inch 1440P IPS monitors to use in a 4 monitor array where I already owned two Acer K272HUL Dbmidpx L 27 IPS monitors. Ranked from favorite to least favorite below: 1) Acer Nitro XV272U Pbmiiprzx 27 WQHD - these are my new favorite 1440p monitors due to the fact that they seem to deliver the best image quality out of all of the monitors that I have tested. I use these for productivity and am not really a gamer. Great text readability, minimal back light bleed, nice sleek design, decent glare reduction without making images blurry (see notes on the Dell unit below). Great controls and menu except a little inconvenient if you have these mounted side by side as the controls are on the right rear of the monitors so might be difficult to access on the left monitor due to placement. Youll need to physically move the monitor to access the controls. Not a big deal to me though. 2) Asus ProArt Display PA278QV - these were my second favorite but I just simply preferred the image quality from the Acer Nitro XV272U a little better. I dont love the measuring lines on the front of the display but suspect they may be useful for video/photo editors? I also think the menu system and buttons can be improved a little. Overall, a nice monitor but didnt quite cut it for me. 3) Acer Nitro VG270U BMIIPX - great image quality and similar image quality like the other Acers listed above, but the fatal flaw with these is they caused my computer to slow to a crawl whenever my PC would wake from sleep. I contacted Acer support and they believe it to be an issue with the firmware thats installed on the monitors. Returned them. 4) Dell U2719D - really nice sleek design with a great menu system controls and input options but the anti glare coating was too aggressive for my liking and the image quality was just meh to me when compared to the two Acers listed above. Hope this helps someone searching for monitors :)

Amazing! The 1440p and 170fps look nice. Highly recommend this moni.

this is a great monitor good colors and such but it needs some tweaking to be perfect i almost returned it until i started doing some digging in windows settings, and it turns out you need to go into nvidia control panel or the amd equivalent and adjust your brightness AND digital vibrancy a little bit. that on its own isnt a big deal but you also need to google how to change your monitor ICC profile in windows thats what changed the biggest thing to me. all in all good monitor for the price but if you arent willing to change some settings and want it right out of the box get something different. until i got into the settings in windows the monitor was noticeably/distractingly dim but after changing some things its perfect now!

Not sure if I won the panel lottery but this monitor is incredible! I have no dead pixels or backlight bleed at all! Ran the UFO test and Lagom monitor calibration tests and have perfect gamma and saturation. Ive decided to put my settings at 120hz so I can use 10 bit color as well. HDR is best left off because Windows just doesnt handle HDR well and honestly without HDR the colors look phenomenal on this monitor. I have response time at normal as I mainly play single player story driven games and have seen no ghosting or trails. 27 QHD is the sweet spot for gaming and general desktop use, I love the extra screen space. I upgraded from a 24 inch 1080p and there is no going back now! I highly recommend this monitor, I think some of these other reviewers dont know how to set correct settings in Radeon/NVIDIA/Windows and are dropping low reviews due to user error, this is an outstanding monitor and cant recommend it enough!

Great picture with very little if any shadowing. Built in crosshairs is nice for shooting games. Seems to be no lag on max setting. Would recommend for gaming.

amazing budget monitor, would recommend to xbox users.

-Not perfect though. The stand is bad, always wobbles. Build quality is decent -Brightness is not that great, but how bright do you need it? Also I wish they had put the connectors on the back instead of under it. - The picture quality is excellent, the colors are the best part of this monitor; very vibrant and accurate. Ive experienced eye fatigue from other monitors with similar specs, but not with this monitor. Fortunately the backlight bleed is minimal, there is only some slight glow on the bottom corners. Not as sharp as 4k of course. -Excellent for gaming Very smooth 144hz picture, maybe slight blur. It is free sync capable and gsync compatible, so you can get tear free gaming with either an amd or nvidia graphics card. I would buy this again. I wouldnt pay much for a similar monitor

The title says it all. I bought 2 of them and dont have a problem at all. It has been a few months already and display has been working very well. No dead pixels at all and the quality of the monitors are so good. Definity worth the money and replacement. I use the Display Port option and the quality is amazing. Acer brand is a great company that makes the best monitors.
